"Silver Linings Playbook" sweeps Satellite Awards

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Silver Linings Playbook" was the big winner at Sunday night's Satellite Awards, a show produced by and voted on by the International Press Academy and held at the Intercontinental Hotel in Beverly Hills.

The David O. Russell comedy, which has been overshadowed in the awards picture by more recent films like "Les Miserables" and "Zero Dark Thirty," won five awards, including Best Motion Picture. Rusell won the award for directing, while stars Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence were named best actor and actress. The film also won for editing.

Supporting actor and actress awards went to Anne Hathaway for "Les Miserables" and Javier Bardem for "Skyfall."

Mark Boal won the original-screenplay award for "Zero Dark Thirty," while David Magee won the adapted-screenplay honor for "Life of Pi."

Other winners: "Rise of the Guardians," best animated film; "Chasing Ice," best documentary; and a tie between "The Intouchables" and "Pieta" for best foreign film.

Proving that the IPA is a body of voters inclined toward sweeps, the television series "Homeland" and "The Big Bang Theory" each won three awards in the TV categories, picking up honors as best drama and comedy series, respectively, and also winning the actor and actress awards.
